There wasn't too much planned for today, just a short drive into Chicago to meet up with Jenn who I hadn't seen since leaving Cornell. Since she wouldn't be off of work until late afternoon, I took my time getting out of bed and packing up. However, I dallied a little too long and didn't account for traffic so I didn't actually end up getting to Chicago until about 5pm. Also, coming into Chicago, I was amazed at how horn happy the cabbies were. I was getting honked at all the times for not moving fast enough at the light. Now yes, sometimes it was deserved since I was doing the "I don't know where I am so I'm looking around" stuff, but other times, they'd lay on the horn the second the light turned green even though my foot was already off the brake.
It wasn't too big a deal though. She made dinner, which was some ricotta stuffed ravioli with sauteed vegetables. It was excellent. After dinner and some catching up, we went out to Evanston to meet up with one of her friends for drinks. Jenn had all her pictures from her trip to Manchu Picchu to show us. It definitely looked like an amazing trip and a very unique place. Her timing also turned out to be very good considering that when I was in Chicago, Peru had just been hit by an earthquake and Jenn had just gotten back a week before.
